Beaumont Independent School District is a U.S. public school district serving Beaumont in Southeast Texas. The district originated in the annexation of the former Beaumont ISD by the South Park Independent School District after its trustees voted in 1983 to dissolve it as the culmination of a struggle over desegregation of both districts. The original Beaumont ISD had previously absorbed the smaller French ISD.

As of February 2024, the district operates 14 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, 3 high schools, a Headstart center, and 3 other specialized and alternative learning centers.[6] Since April 2014, it has been under direct state control, with a superintendent and board of managers appointed by the Texas Education Agency.
